A preview, but quite a very small sneak peek. The latest episode of The Star Wars Show focuses mostly on Battlefront II’s voice actor T.J. Ramani, but there is a nice little preview of “Star Wars: Galactic Nights” that will be coming to Hollywood Studios for just one night on December 16th. The clip starts just before 1 minute mark on the video below.

If you were hoping to see lots of new footage in the international trailer for “Star Wars: The Last Jedi”, you may be disappointed. This trailer, from Japan, is basically parts of the teaser trailer, combined with the official domestic trailer, plus a few new shots of Rey, Kylo’s helmet, BB-8 and C3PO. It’s nothing like the international trailer that was released for “The Force Awakens”, which added a lot more additional footage. Lucasfilm is trying to keep as much of this film as possible under wraps and they are doing a very good job of it!

This, however, is a little more interesting. Japan has also released a new international poster for “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” and in it we finally see Luke igniting his light saber. This is very similar to the domestic poster that was released recently but Luke and Rey have traded places. Does that mean anything? We’ll soon find out.

The first teaser trailer for the “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” was released at this year’s Star Wars Celebration, but that was way back in April. Since then, it seems like we have been waiting for way too long for an actual official trailer for “Star Wars: The Last Jedi”. It looks like the wait may soon be over.
Mark Hamill recently posted this mysterious tweet below alluding to that something is coming October 9th. But shortly after Hamill posted this, he deleted it.
Why did Hamill delete this post? We dont know. Maybe Lucasfilm wants to make an official announcement, or it’s even possible that Hamill got his dates mixed up and that the trailer may be released later…… or maybe even sooner.
For now, you may want to tune into Monday Night Football on October 9th. Or just keep your eyes open on that day right here as we promise to post the trailer as soon as it comes out!
StarWars.com has updated their databank and it shows new images and descriptions for characters, vehicles and planets from “Star Wars: The Last Jedi”.
Luke Skywalker was a Tatooine farmboy who rose from humble beginnings to become one of the greatest Jedi the galaxy has ever known. Along with his friends Princess Leia and Han Solo, Luke battled the evil Empire, discovered the truth of his parentage, and ended the tyranny of the Sith. A generation later, the location of the famed Jedi master was one of the galaxy’s greatest mysteries.
Princess Leia Organa was one of the Rebel Alliance’s greatest leaders, fearless on the battlefield and dedicated to ending the tyranny of the Empire. Daughter of Padmé Amidala and Anakin Skywalker, sister of Luke Skywalker, and with a soft spot for scoundrels, Leia ranks among the galaxy’s great heroes. But life under the New Republic has not been easy for Leia. Sidelined by a new generation of political leaders, and struck out on her own to oppose the First Order as founder of the Resistance. These setbacks in her political career have been accompanied by more personal losses.
Part of the support crew that keeps the Resistance starfighters flying, Rose has hated the First Order since she was a child. Now able to fight back against the enemy, Rose keeps her focus on her mission.
Small, flat-muzzled avians that flock about the rocks and roost in the cliffs of Luke Skywalker’s secluded island, porgs are inquisitive creatures.
Rolling about the hangar bays of outposts and capital ships, or snug in the astromech sockets of X-wing fighters, BB units work tirelessly to keep the weapons and vessels of the Resistance in top combat condition.
The First Order can only operate effectively with the absolute loyalty of its followers. Should any soldier be found guilty of treason, it is up to this special branch of Stormtrooper to dispense final justice.
Reminiscent in design of the Empire’s TIE interceptor and Darth Vader’s TIE advanced, Kylo Ren’s TIE silencer is an angular fighter equipped with laser cannons and missile launchers. Ren is an expert pilot — thanks to skills passed down from his father — which he puts to use in exploiting his ship’s speed and ferocity. There is no other First Order craft like the TIE silencer, and it is an effective tool in Ren’s mission to destroy the Resistance.
The First Order Dreadnought looms over its doomed targets like an impossible iron thundercloud. Its massive ventral auto-cannons rain down fiery destruction.
As the Supreme Leader of the First Order, Snoke stood atop an evil regime that mirrored many of the dark traditions of the Galactic Empire. As a striking example, Snoke was flanked by crimson-clad guardians, loyal protectors encased in the ornate armor ready to defend the Supreme Leader from any threat.
The First Order benefits from the latest technology across all its activities. This includes having dark, gleaming BB astromech units of their own that keep their starships and machinery operational.
Now uninhabited, Crait is a mineral world dusted by a layer of white salt, reflecting the planet’s sunlight. It was once the site of a Rebel Alliance outpost, and has become a haven for the fleeing Resistance forces.
Now reinforced with new combat craft, the Resistance fleet dispatches hardy bombers into battle with the First Order fleet. Escorted by swift starfighters, these munitions-laden carrier ships drop powerful proton bombs onto their Star Destroyer targets.
An older design pre-dating the Rebel Alliance, these low-altitude, high power ski speeders use a stabilizer strut to keep balance when zipping across alien terrain.
Lumbering armored beasts that are the latest generation in walkers, these enormous transports help the First Order secure the worlds of their expanding territories.
